We serve adults 18 years of age or older experiencing a mental health crisis. Services are billed to Medical Assistance or a private health insurance plan. If your coverage does not include residential crisis services, the cost of treatment may be covered by your county of residence.

About our Crisis Programming

People Incorporated is a residential crisis stabilization (RCS) provider regulated through the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS). In 1993, we opened the first crisis residence in Minnesota. This program integrates mental health, medical, and substance use care in an inpatient, 24-hour, supervised setting for up to 10 days. These services help individuals who are experiencing a mental health crisis or emergency.

Goals

People Incorporated is dedicated to helping individuals set goals toward independence and lifelong wellness with customized treatment. We help individuals manage their immediate mental health needs, develop a crisis prevention plan, learn new coping skills, and recognize symptoms earlier.  An important goal of crisis stabilization services is the development of a discharge plan, including referrals to other People Incorporated services to meet individuals where they are at in their recovery journey.

Our Staff

Our multidisciplinary staff of clinical social workers, mental health practitioners, nurses, certified peer specialists, therapists, and psychiatrists provide crisis care in a home-like atmosphere within three residential locations in the St. Paul and Minneapolis area.
